Disclaimer		 Menactra vaccine (Meningococcal vaccine)

Meningococcal vaccine protects against neisseria meningococcal meningitis. Adolescents in group settings like dormitories are at higher risk of contacting the disease. Most colleges and universities now require the vaccine for all students.

Complete vaccination consists of 1 shot.
The shot can be given at 11 years old and up.

Please read the Vaccine information sheet (VIS) for Menactra for more information. We will also provide you with the VIS at the time of the vaccine administration.

Vaccine information sheets are available for all vaccines we offer at FPA. VIS for all vaccines
